‘Solar Roadways’ Is The Road Of The Future

A lot has changed since the 1960’s. Our phones, computers, and cars are all much more advanced. But one thing is still relatively archaic. Our roads. Scott and Julie Brusaw want to change all that. For years they have been working on a project to battle so many problems we currently face. Their product is the Solar Roadway.

The Solar Roadway is to the road as the smartphone is to the rotatory phone. Their product will be a roadway that never needs salting or clearing from ice and snow as it is heated. The LED’s under the road can dynamically warn motorists of oncoming trouble. And best of it, the roads all work as solar panels to obtain free electricity from the sun. These are just a few of the amazing benefits of their new solar road.

Sadly, we have along way to go before the country, and the world is covered with Solar-freaking-Roadways. Scientist Thunderf00t covers the many reasons why the solar-roads are more science fiction than science in this response video.
